It Is the Soldier

It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Soldier, not the poet,

Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer,
Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.

It is the Soldier, not the lawyer,

Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Soldier, who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protestor to burn the flag.


By Father Dennis Edward O’Brien, USMC

The Unashamed Workman

2 Timothy 2:15

Study to show thyself
approved unto God, a

workman that needeth
not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth.
